ONT Resequencing (Prokaryotic/Eukaryotic)

 
 
Explore your genome with long-read precision.
Identify SNVs, indels, and structural variants in any organism—prokaryotic or eukaryotic—with Oxford Nanopore resequencing.

 

What You Can Achieve

  • Detect large structural variants, insertions, deletions, or rearrangements
  • Characterize repetitive or otherwise inaccessible regions
  • Verify insertions, knockouts, or engineered edits
  • Suitable for bacteria, fungi, plants, and other eukaryotes

Before You Start

Please clarify:

  • Which organism(s) do you want to resequence?
  • What is the approximate genome size?
  • Are you targeting specific variant types (e.g. SVs, SNVs, insertions)?
  • Do you already have a reference genome for alignment?
  • Will you send DNA or tissue/cell samples?

Modular Workflow

Designed to deliver high-confidence variant calls across your entire genome.

Bioinformatics Analysis

A detailed resequencing report including:

  • Alignment to reference genome
  • Single nucleotide variants (SNVs)
  • Small insertions/deletions (InDels)
  • Structural variants (SVs)
  • Annotation of detected variants
  • Summary tables and variant impact categorization

You receive:

  • Raw and aligned read data (.fastq, .bam)
  • Annotated variant lists (.vcf, .tsv)
  • Visual variant reports and summary tables
  • Quality and alignment metrics

Turnaround Time

  • Standard resequencing: approx. 1 to 3 weeks

Dependent on genome size, DNA quality, and analysis scope.

Sample Requirements

Option 1: Pre-extracted HMW gDNA

  • Minimum 2 μg of HMW double-stranded DNA
  • ≥50% of fragments >20 kb
  • 260/280 >1.8 and 260/230 between 2.0–2.2
  • ≥50 μl at ≥40 ng/μl

Option 2: Cell or Tissue Samples (with Extraction)

  • Suitable for bacteria, fungi, plants, or other eukaryotic tissues
  • Must be fresh or properly preserved (no RNAlater or ethanol)
  • We tailor extraction based on species and sample condition
  • Include known challenges or prior extraction notes
